Minnie Ntuli makes triumphant return to Gagasi FM: fans celebrate her comeback on ‘The Uprising'
Gagasi FM's Minnie Ntuli is back on the airwaves. The radio presenter returned to her morning slot on "The Uprising" alongside Felix Hlophe after stepping away from her duties in July. The station announced the news in a social media post on Monday morning, revealing that Ntuli has officially resumed her role. During her time away, her seat on the popular breakfast show was taken over by fellow presenter Nkulee Mbatha. Ntuli's absence followed a dramatic clash that was revealed during 'The Real Housewives of Durban' reunion, which caused a stir both on and off screen. In the heated moment, a never-before-seen clip was played, showing fellow castmate Londie London questioning Ntuli about her upbringing. Ntuli felt the comment was a direct insult to her parents. The confrontation quickly escalated, with Ntuli hurling a cushion across the room and accusing London of 'dishonouring' her parents. The tension boiled over when Ntuli poked London in the forehead while shouting insults, leaving her stunned but composed as she labelled Ntuli a 'bully.' At the time, the station publicly acknowledged her actions, saying she had apologised to the production team and her fellow cast members and reassured listeners that they were committed to supporting a process of healing and reconciliation. 'Our focus is on promoting reconciliation. Both Minnie and the other cast members are professionals in the media industry, and it is likely they will work together again in future,' the statement read. With Ntuli now back behind the mic, Gagasi FM appears ready to move forward. The comment section under the station's Facebook post has been filled with positivity, with fans celebrating her comeback. Many said they missed her voice and the energy she brings to mornings, and that they are excited to hear her back on the air alongside Hlophe. Miss Zyander Deleki wrote, 'I love Nkulee so much, but no one does 'The Uprising' better than this duo. Welcome back, Minnie.' While Khanyisile Ntuli said, 'Perfect combo, oh, we missed you a lot, Minnie, welcome back. I love the energy you bring to the show. 🥰' 'Welcome back💕everyone makes mistakes and we need to forgive,' said Sandy Goldwana.

From reality TV to tattooed memories: Jojo Robinson and her Labubu doll, Martin, get inked
"The Real Housewives of Durban" reality TV star, Jojo Robinson and Martin, her firstborn Labubu son, went under the needle. Robinson, who is covered from neck to toe with tattoos, returned to popular tattoo artist Mike Artura to complete her neck tattoo. In a quirky twist, she got Artura to tattoo her Labubu doll's face. After two years of contemplation and preparation, she finally embraced the commitment, telling her followers: "Clearly I don't have commitment issues ... after 2 years I finally got brave enough to finish my neck ... we don't need to share the details on how I managed to sit through it. We still have a little to finish, though ..." Robinson provided a glimpse into her tattooing experience, adding a bit of humour with her candid commentary: "Fyi ... NEVER take sleeping tablets while getting tattooed. It's not a vibe .. maybe one day I'll share the videos from yesterday😂. Not sure what planet I was on. But it wasn't this one."
